Hmmm, there is really not much to share. Most of the code handles Authentication or other stuff, like informing another server that a new user has entered an conf-room, or updating databases.Mostly I look an the CallerId to decide if this should be a "marked user" (but there are not many scenarios ther the CallerID is known in advance), or the Caller has to make the choice by himself, by touching the right button. I use Asterisk-Java as AGI-Implementation. Everytime then an AGI-Script gets executed by an Extensions the service-Method of my Java-Class will be executed: private String adminMeetme = "dMaXq"; // not the 'a' for the marked Mode private String userMeetme = "dMXq"; public void service(AGIRequest req, AGIChannel channel) throws AGIException { // Ask if we want to be marked char option = getOption(wantAdminPrompt, "12", 360 * 1000); if (option == '1') { // Yes // This sets a Channel-Variable with the // correct MeetMe-Parameters exec("SET", "MEETMEOPTS=" + adminMeetme); } else { // No // Parameter for a normal user exec("SET", "MEETMEOPTS=" + userMeetme); } } My dialplan looks like this: exten => 1000,1,AGI(agi://localhost/askformarked.agi) exten => 1000,n,MeetMe(${EXTEN},${MEETMEOPTS}) exten => 1000,n,Hangup() This is a minimalistic Example, i have erased a lot of logic that has little to do with the actual MeetMe-Room. But it is the essence of dealing with the correct Parameters, there a lot of other way to accomplish this. It depends on what you have in mind with your application which way works for you. So, you see there is no ready-to-use-multi-purpose-AGI which you can simply plug-in to your Asterisk, sorry for that ;) But i think the effort as not that great, even if you solve it only with Dialplan-Logic, or AEL. I am sure, you will come up with an solution :D Take care, Tobias Wolf _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
Thanks Tobias, That does help a lot actually, not least of all being saving me heaps of time in trying to mess around with my dialplan thinking I didn't know how to differentiate between marked and unmarked user. Maybe I'm not thinking about all scenarios here but the logical thing (as per my logic of course) would be to auto-set the user entering the admin password as the "marked user". The reason I say this is that let's say you have a conference you've setup with a potential client, now you're the host, but if he's the "marked" user & he's the one without whom the conference is pointless. So until he arrives, no one gets to talk (I think that's how it works?). But if using what I'm saying, then the "host" is also the "marked" user and as long as he/she's there, other people can simply talk to each other and just wait for the potential client to arrive. But if the "host" isn't there, then there's no one to control/manage the conference hence all non-admin users should simply stay in a holding pattern listening to MOH. But I guess this discussion is only useful if the "dev" people are reading this and they agree. Maybe I'm missing something, I don't know. Thanks for the AGI structure though, I had implemented this via dial-plan except then it only works for a few static conferences with static PINs. Our conferences reset conference PINs to random digits every night and unless I do SQL queries (since I read meetme.conf from the DB) I have no way of knowing what those PINs are and so can't create DialPlan rules to check for the marked or unmarked user based on the PIN. If I use your method, then I'll have to prompt the user if they want to become marked or not. I don't want to offer the option. But like you said, I'll figure out a solution (although I think I already have while typing this) but something tells me, it'll be difficult and messy without an AGI :) Cheers \R _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
